Louisiana Handicap License Plates

A handicap license plate in Louisiana is a special vehicle plate issued to individuals with permanent disabilities. It provides accessible parking privileges and helps identify vehicles used by those with medical mobility limitations.

To qualify, an individual must be certified by a licensed medical professional as having a permanent disability that limits mobility. This includes conditions that impair walking, require assistive devices, or limit cardiovascular or respiratory function.

Applicants must complete the Disabled Parking Affidavit (Form DPSMV 1966) signed by a licensed physician, along with vehicle registration documents and proof of insurance. Title Authority can assist with preparing and submitting the application to the Louisiana OMV.

You’ll need a completed DPSMV 1966 form (certified by a medical professional), valid photo ID, current vehicle registration, and proof of insurance. If you’re applying through a third party like Title Authority, they can help ensure everything is submitted correctly.

There is no additional charge for the handicap designation itself, but regular registration and handling fees still apply. Veterans with disabilities may qualify for further exemptions depending on eligibility.
